Hi!
I noticed that Awami is missing support for "U+0A89 ARABIC LETTER YEH WITH TWO DOTS BELOW AND DOT ABOVE". Basically it's missing support for this character which exists in Scheherazade and Lateef. This letter seems to be a part of the Balochi Standard Alphabet, and it seems to represent /e:/.

I was wondering if there were any plans to implement this? Thanks!
This character was added for an African language...Fulfulde. I wonder if it's a different character you are thinking of. For example, this keyboard doesn't have a character that looks like that: https://help.keyman.com/keyboard/balochi_phonetic/1.5/balochi_phonetic
My understanding is that these are the characters required for Balochi:
[آ ا ب پ ت ٹ ج چ د ڈ ر ڑ ز ژ س ش ک گ ل م ن و ۆ ه ی ێ ے ئ ِ َ ُ ّ ْ]
I'm going based off of what looks to be the specification for the Balochi script made by a Balochi academy in Iran, it seems as though there is a special character that looks like a ي with a dot above it in its medial and initial forms. There may be a different character that fulfills this purpose is U+0754 ARABIC LETTER BEH WITH TWO DOTS BELOW AND DOT ABOVE
.
We will not plan to add U+0A89 unless there is better evidence. It does not appear to me to be what is being used in Balochi.
